About Our Guild

Paradise Quilters is a non-profit organization established in 1994 to promote the art of quilt making and to share the quilting experience. We are both an educational and a charitable organization. The funds raised through the guild's biennial show help to bring in teachers to expand our knowledge. They are also used to purchase supplies for quilts which we make for local charities to raffle as fundraisers. In addition, members are encouraged to make quilts to donate to needy babies through local hospitals and to local shelter programs. Present membership is approximately 75 members with a wide range of ages and quilting experience.

Our guild is a chapter member, FL739, of the National Quilting Association.

Meetings

Our guild meets on the first Thursday of each month at 6:30 p.m. at the Dallas MacDonald Senior Center on Big Pine Key located behind the new fire station. We have monthly workshops the first Saturday of the month (usually the Saturday after our meetings) at the Senior Center as well. In addition we sponsor open quilting sessions on the first and third Tuesdays of the month from 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. at the Senior Center. We welcome all who have an interest in quilting.
